The length of a rectangle exceeds the breadth by 6 cm. If the length is increased by 3 cm
and breadth decreased by 2 cm, the area remains the same. Find the length and breadth of
the rectangle​

Answer 1

The length is 24 cm and the breadth is 18 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the length of the rectangle be x cm. Then the length of its breadth will be (x-6) cm.

According to the question,

(x+3)(x-6-2)=x(x-6)

or, (x+3)(x-8)=x(x-6)

or, x^2-5x-24= x^2 -6x

or,x=24

So, the length is 24 cm and the breadth is (24-6)=18 cm.

Answer 2

Answer:

length and breadth of the given rectangle are

24 cm and 18 cm respectively.
